28" HK/Benelli M1 super 90 field gun - 3gun?

[jtischauser]

Is there anyone who makes custom tubes?

I can think of at least 5 aftermarket shotgun tube manufacturers. What r u looking for?

How long is the barrel on this M1 then? I have a skinny on a 28" one but I haven't decided on that being the best choice.
Is this one 28" or 24"?

Well, here it is with the mods I got so far. +9 tube (measured barrel wrong), barrel clamp, hi vis sights, and replaced the follower. After the pics took off the lifter and that is being sent to c-rums.

Thinking only thing left for this year is a Briley choke.

How long are those couch cushions?

Barrel is 28" with a plus 9 tube underneath it...

Only problem I have now is that it is hard feeding shells into it. Takes a little effort to push it past the "catch" that keeps the shells in the tube.

Was it having the feeding issue before the mods? If you figure it out, let me know.

no, there aren't any feeding problems based on the stock gun...

It is based on what I am reading for 3gun. The shell catch (don't know right term) is "stiff" and just makes it a little harder to push the shells in the magazine tube. It can be "weakened" just haven't got the nerve up to try yet as if you weaken too far then the shells won't stay in the tube at all. Of course if you are planning to send to a gunsmith to get it set up for 3gun then they can take of this for you.

That shell catch is a cat lady, I had Accurate Ron tweak mine. It's well worth it.

Mine just recently became untweaked and shells were loading fast but unloading on their own too.

I took it out and bent it back then polished it up so shells slide down it easierly.
